Animated Sphinx Character Rig

Here’s another character from the animated web series I’ve been working on. This was a challenging character to rig because she has 4 legs, a tail, and wings in addition to a normal head. It was worth the work though, because now I can easily pose and animate her from different angles.

I started this whole project while I was traveling abroad, and so I only had my 8 year old, 2012 Macbook Pro to work off of. It’s fine for writing, but trying to create characters and animate on an old computer with only a 13″ screen was frustrating to say the least. When I got back home, I bought a new laptop and a 27″ monitor, and working on that setup makes a huge difference.
